MANCHESTER UNITED MANAGER Jose Mourinho has expressed his delight at working with Zlatan Ibrahimovic again, after the drawn-out arrival of the forward was finally confirmed.
The Sweden international had let slip the news on his Instagram page on Thursday, with United making it official the following day.
And speaking via the club’s official website, Mourinho affirmed that he hoped Zlatan would lead the Red Devils to silverware.
“Zlatan needs no introduction. The statistics speak for themselves. Ibra is one of the best strikers in the world and a player who always gives 100 per cent,” the new manager said.
With major titles in Italy, Spain, Netherlands and France, the ex-Paris Saint-Germain star has picked up an incredible 12 league winner’s medals in the last 13 seasons.
“He has won the most important league championships in the world of football, now he has the opportunity to play in the best league in the world and I know he will grasp this opportunity and will work hard to help the team win titles,” Mourinho added.
“I am certain that his talent will delight fans at Old Trafford next season and that his experience will be invaluable in helping to develop the younger players in the squad.”
